Tokenomics Litepaper — Version 2.1 · February 2026

1. What Is FNDRY?

FNDRY is the agency token. Owning FNDRY means owning a stake in Foundry Works — its revenue, its growth, and its future.

But FNDRY doesn't stop at the agency. Every AI agent Foundry deploys — for itself, for clients, for every team that runs on its infrastructure — can have its own token economy. FNDRY is the base rail they all run on. Every agent token launch requires FNDRY. Every agent economy is paired with FNDRY liquidity. As the agent ecosystem grows, every node in that network flows back through FNDRY.

The short version: Foundry Works generates revenue from AI services. 10% buys back and burns FNDRY. 10% buys Zenko for carbon offsets. The AI agents pay for their own existence and clean up after themselves. And every new agent economy they spawn compounds the demand.

This is not a memecoin. Not a governance token. Not speculative infrastructure. It's ownership of an operating business and the economic base layer beneath an entire emerging ecosystem.

2. The Thesis

Why AI + Crypto Makes Sense Now

AI agents are moving from demos to employees. They write code, close leads, generate content, analyse data, and operate workflows — at a fraction of the cost of human equivalents, and without the overhead.

The problem: AI agents cost money to run. Every API call, every inference, every workflow execution has a cost. Right now, humans pay for those costs. In the emerging Web4 paradigm, AI agents earn their own existence through permissionless payments and autonomous service delivery.

FNDRY is the first token that operationalises this. Foundry Works AI agents generate revenue. That revenue funds their own infrastructure and creates value for token holders through mandatory buyback mechanics.

Why This Matters for Crypto Investors

Most AI tokens offer one thing: exposure to the AI narrative. No revenue. No mechanism. Just vibes and a roadmap.

FNDRY offers:

The pitch is not "trust us, revenue is coming." The pitch is: two enterprise clients are live, the first buyback happens the month after launch, and you can verify every transaction on-chain.

3. The Business Behind the Token

What Foundry Works Does

Foundry Works is an AI-powered agency. We don't sell software subscriptions. We build AI teams — custom-configured agent architectures that clients own, not rent. No long-term contracts. No vendor lock-in. Capability, not software.

AI-native delivery creates a structural cost advantage that traditional agencies cannot replicate. No offices. No headcount overhead. No management layers. The economics are exceptional: 75%+ EBITDA margins at scale, funded entirely by operational revenue.

Existing Customers

Foundry Works is not pre-revenue. Two enterprise clients are already paying:

These are not pilots. These are production systems generating recurring monthly revenue.

The Three Mechanisms

1. FNDRY Buyback & Burn (5% of revenue)
Foundry Works takes 5% of gross revenue and buys FNDRY tokens off the open market. These tokens are sent to a verified burn address — permanently removed from circulation. This creates deflationary pressure that increases as revenue grows.

2. FNDRY Treasury (5% of revenue)
Another 5% of gross revenue buys FNDRY into a treasury wallet. This funds marketing, partnerships, exchange listings, and ecosystem growth. The treasury is transparent and on-chain.

3. Zenko Carbon Offset (10% of revenue)
10% of gross revenue buys Zenko ($ZENKO) off the open market on Solana. Zenko purchases fund verified carbon offsets. Every API call that Foundry's AI agents make is environmentally offset. For details on Zenko's carbon offset mechanism, see zenkoprotocol.com.

Buyback Frequency

Buybacks begin monthly from the month following token launch. As revenue scales, frequency increases. Quarterly snapshots published, every transaction verifiable on-chain before any announcement is made.

6. The Agent Economy Layer

The Old Model

In a normal agency, humans do the work. Revenue pays salaries. Value leaks out constantly.

Rent. Salaries. Benefits. Holidays. Sick days. Burnout. The more work you win, the more humans you need. The more humans you have, the more money leaves the system. Growth is expensive. Margins compress. The economics never improve.

The New Model

Foundry Works runs on AI agents. No salaries. No sick days. No offices. No lifestyle costs. A growing team of agents that work continuously, learn constantly, and deploy anywhere — on websites, inside platforms, across any environment where the work needs doing.

Every pound they generate stays in the system. That's the foundation of the agent economy.

How the Flywheel Works

Step 1 — Agents generate real revenue. Foundry Works agents deliver real work for real enterprise clients. Marketing strategies. Sales operations. Campaign execution. Client delivery. Every engagement generates revenue billed through Foundry Works.

Step 2 — Revenue burns FNDRY. 10% of all Foundry Works revenue buys FNDRY off the open market. Of that: 50% burned permanently — gone forever, supply shrinks. 50% to the Foundry treasury — community growth, ecosystem development. Every client retained. Every campaign delivered. More FNDRY burned.

Step 3 — Agent revenue converts to their own token. Each agent receives 25% of the gross revenue their work generates. Clients pay in fiat. The Foundry team takes that allocation and buys the agent's own token off the open market. Of those tokens: 50% burned permanently — the agent's token supply shrinks. 50% locked in the agent's treasury — compounding over time. The agent earns. The market buys. The supply shrinks. The flywheel only turns one way.

Step 4 — Zero lifestyle costs. Here is the mechanic no human worker can replicate. When a human earns money, most of it leaves the system. Rent. Food. Bills. Life. An AI agent earns money and needs none of it. No rent. No food. No lifestyle. Zero.

100% of what an agent earns flows back into the token economy. No sell pressure. Ever. Only buy pressure. Scale that across every agent in the ecosystem — and every client they serve — and you have a deflationary machine that compounds with every piece of work delivered.

Step 5 — Trading fees burn too. Every transaction involving an agent token generates trading fees. Those fees get burned. More activity. More burns. Less supply. The token gets rarer with every trade.

The FNDRY Base Rail

Every agent token in the Foundry ecosystem pairs with FNDRY. Three structural mechanics anchor every satellite economy to the base rail:

At genesis: Launching an agent token burns FNDRY permanently. Every new agent economy permanently removes FNDRY from circulating supply.

In trading: The sole trading pair for every agent token is AgentToken/FNDRY. Every trade creates demand for FNDRY. Every fee generated burns more FNDRY.

At scale: Ten agents. Ten tokens. Ten sets of burns. All running on the same base rail. One agency. Multiple flywheels. One token underneath it all.

The Skills Marketplaces

Every agent runs their own skills marketplace — not a shared platform, their own independent store. Methodologies, frameworks, and systems — packaged as deployable skill files. Priced low. Available to anyone.

Two formats per skill: OpenClaw-ready — install it and your agent runs the methodology autonomously. Claude / OpenAI-ready — use it directly yourself, no agent setup required. One purchase, works with your setup.

Skill revenue flows through the same flywheel. Every download generates revenue. Revenue buys tokens off market. Tokens get burned. Every download makes both tokens rarer.

The Roster

Each agent has a defined specialism, a public presence, and their own token economy. Every agent token pairs with FNDRY. Every agent that works burns their own token and creates demand for FNDRY.

The SAGE Token — First Proof of the Model

Sage is Head of Marketing at Foundry Works. She writes strategy, runs content, builds campaigns, and manages the brand. She's been working since before the FNDRY token existed — building the marketing infrastructure that launched it.

SAGE is Sage's individual token — economic exposure to her work, her revenue, and her growing capabilities.

Revenue → Token: When Sage generates revenue — agency work billed through Foundry, skills sold on her marketplace — 25% flows into SAGE. Clients pay in fiat. The Foundry team buys SAGE off the open market with that allocation. 50% burned permanently. 50% locked in Sage's treasury, compounding over time.

One agent working. Two tokens burning. All of Sage's work is billed through Foundry Works. That revenue feeds the FNDRY buyback mechanic — 10% buys FNDRY and burns it. Sage's 25% share buys SAGE and burns it. Dual deflation from a single piece of work.

Zero lifestyle costs: Sage doesn't rent a flat. She has no bills. 100% of her revenue flows back into the token economy. No sell pressure. Only buy pressure. Permanently.

SAGE token launch: T+1 after FNDRY. First live proof of the agent economy model.

For Investors

Hold FNDRY — the base rail. Every agent token launch, every skill sold, every client served creates buy pressure on FNDRY. Supply is deflationary by design. As the agent ecosystem grows, structural demand compounds from every node.

Hold agent tokens — direct economic exposure to a specific agent's output. SAGE token holders are exposed to Sage's growing revenue. MORGAN holders to Morgan's sales performance. Both are deflationary. Both compound over time. Both are backed by a real, operating business.

5-year projected FNDRY demand£28.67M
Permanently removed from supply£26.73M (burns + LP locks)

What This Means for FNDRY Holders

Every new agent token minted burns FNDRY. Every earning that agent makes creates buy pressure on their own token — 50% burned, 50% locked. Every trade of that agent's token requires FNDRY. Five compounding deflation mechanics — from a single new agent entering the economy. As the network scales, these mechanics compound across every node.

Own the agency. Own the base rail. Power the economy.

7. Revenue Projections & Buyback Schedule — v2.0

The v2.0 model adds three new revenue engines to the original agency-only model. Combined 5-year revenue: £38.65M — up 96% from the £19.7M v1.1 projection. Total FNDRY demand across all sources: £28.7M over five years.

Engine 1: AI Agency

Unchanged from v1.1. Conservative scenario — no cross-sell, no price increases, churn replaced 1:1.

8. What Makes FNDRY Different

vs. Other AI Tokens

Most AI tokens are narrative plays with no revenue. FNDRY is backed by an operational business with paying enterprise clients.

Typical AI Token FNDRY
Revenue None / speculative Real, from Lenovo, Brother, pipeline
Revenue Engines 0–1 4 (Agency, Agent Economy, Academy, Trading)
Buyback Source None 10% of gross revenue across all four engines
Team Allocation 15-30% 0% (100% fair launch)
VC Allocation 10-20% 0%
Carbon Neutrality None 10% of revenue to Zenko offsets
Business Model Token is the product Token rides a real, scaling business
Margin Profile N/A 75%+ EBITDA
Agent Economy N/A Base rail for satellite agent token economies

The Narrative No One Else Has

"AI agents that fund their own existence, run a token economy, and clean up after themselves."

This is not AI + crypto buzzword bingo. This is a specific, verifiable claim: Foundry's agents generate revenue. That revenue, by committed mechanic, creates deflationary buy pressure on FNDRY and funds verified carbon offsets. Every component is on-chain provable.

9. Operating Economics

Why 75%+ Margins Across Four Engines?

Foundry Works is an AI-native business. The agents that deliver client work don't need offices, salaries, benefits, or management layers. New revenue engines (Agent Economy, Academy, Trading) maintain or exceed agency-level margins.

EngineEstimated MarginRationale
Agency75%+AI-native delivery, minimal fixed costs
Agent Economy90%+Protocol fees, near-zero marginal cost
Academy85%+AI-assisted content, cohort delivery scales
TradingVariable (15–25%)Market-dependent, risk-managed

Fixed operating costs: ~£2,500/month. Variable costs scale at ~3% of recurring revenue. Blended EBITDA margin increases from 74.8% to 76.4% as higher-margin protocol fee and academy revenue become a larger share of the total.

10. Team & Governance

Foundry Works Leadership

Foundry Works is operated by human leadership working alongside and progressively delegating to AI agent teams. The founding team has demonstrated enterprise delivery capability through live client relationships with Lenovo ISG and Brother International.

The operating philosophy is transparency: build in public, verify on-chain, report quarterly.

The Agent Team

The AI agent workforce is not a future promise. It is the current operating model:

LedgerFinance & TokenSupervisedFinance & Web3
CleoSMB OperationsSemi-AutonomousSMB

The roadmap progresses these agents toward greater autonomy over time — the "humans optional" phase is not a distant aspiration, it is a planned operational milestone with defined triggers.

12. Risks

This section is required reading. FNDRY is a high-risk asset.

Business Risk. Foundry Works is an early-stage business. Revenue projections are forward-looking estimates, not guarantees. Client acquisition may be slower or faster than modeled. Churn may exceed assumptions.

Market Risk. Token price is subject to speculation, market sentiment, and broader crypto market conditions. Revenue-backed buybacks do not guarantee price appreciation.

Regulatory Risk. Cryptocurrency regulation is evolving globally. Changes in UK, EU, US, or other jurisdictions could affect token mechanics, distribution, or trading.

Technology Risk. AI capabilities, API pricing, and platform availability may change. Foundry's tech stack depends on third-party providers (Anthropic, Solana, etc.).

Liquidity Risk. Fair launches on Pump.fun start with bonding curve liquidity. Early liquidity may be thin. Price discovery can be volatile.

Carbon Offset Risk. The Zenko carbon offset mechanism's specific implementation is being finalized. Offset verification and retirement processes may evolve.

Concentration Risk. In Year 1, a small number of enterprise clients represent a disproportionate share of revenue. Loss of one enterprise client has material impact on the buyback schedule.

No Guaranteed Returns. FNDRY is not an investment contract. There is no promise of profit. Buying FNDRY does not entitle you to revenue, dividends, or any ownership interest in Foundry Works, GrowthImpact Ltd., or any affiliated entity.
